Black Box 5000 manual Reset Options

Multiserver 5000

	Table 11-1. Reset Options
Option	Description
1. Node	Disconnects the Command Facility and resets the local Multiserver node, all locally
	connected channels, and locally attached feeder muxes. Remote Multiservers and feeder
	muxes will not be reset by this option. If a port has been configured as sync or reconfigured
	from sync to async, or a different clocking rate has been configured, this reset is required
	prior to channel configuration. After you select this option, the screen will display the
	following:
	ENTER A “Y” TO CONFIRM OR “N” TO ABORT:
	To terminate and halt the reset process, press N and the screen will return to the Reset
	Menu. To continue with the reset, press Y. This takes you to the Node Menu. The Node
	Menu has two options for node reset: factory-default values (cold reset) or current
	configuration (warm reset). WARNING: A cold reset (factory-default values) will erase all
	non-default configurations for the entire node.
2. Link	Clears all information on the link and will disconnect all ports currently using the link. If the
	link is a mux link, the feeder mux will also be reset. Force-connected channels will
	automatically reestablish connection. After you select this option, the screen will display the
	following:
	ENTER LINK CHANNEL # (^X TO ABORT):
	Enter the channel (port) number for the link being reset, then press <cr>. To terminate
	without resetting the link, press ^X.
3. Channel	Disconnects and resets a single data or voice/fax channel only. This option permits a reset
	function without having to take down the whole system. After you select this option, the
	screen will display the following:
	ENTER CHANNEL # (^X TO ABORT):
	Enter the channel number, then press <cr>. To terminate without resetting the channel,
	press ^X.
4. Integral LAN	Resets the integral LAN module (LAN Bridge) to either the current configuration or its
	default settings. After you select this option, the screen will display the following:
	ENTER MODULE LOCATION (B-E) (^X TO ABORT):
	Enter the module location for the LAN module, then press <cr>. The Integral LAN Reset
	Menu will appear. To terminate without resetting the LAN module, press ^X.
